The people behind West Portland establishments Paddy’s and North 45 have a (relatively) new SE Portland bar and restaurant on SE Belmont. It’s called Circa 33, right by the Stumptown, and they are throwing a big party this Saturday to celebrate everyone’s favorite prohibitionist. Temperature forecast: sunny and 70. Perfect.

Live music, a whole pig roast, & over 10 local distillers on-site. Come join the party on Saturday, June 25th from 12 noon to midnight. Carry Nation was famous for storming into a bar with her axe and smashing up the place in the name of the Temperance movement. ¬Å“Blind Pig¬Â was the code word for a speakeasy. Come celebrate both these pieces of history at Carry Nation's Blind Pig Social.

$5 cover benefiting the Oregon Distillers Guild. Distillers onsite from 3pm-7pm, live music by Joe McMurrian / Woodbrain from 7pm-10pm.

Can’t wait. The good people at Circa 33, the Distillers, the Band and Carry are going to rock the house. Knowing C33 the cocktails are going to be killer. Speaking of killer, the Pig is definitely committed on this one…and so are we.
